Although Du Yue knew what those people were thinking, she did not care. She only cared about doing what she wanted to do. As for what others thought, it was never within her consideration.

Soon, a week passed. During this week, there were more than ten people outside the courtyard at all times. Those people did not make any trouble. They were either lying on the grass or sitting. However, no matter what they were doing, all of their eyes were fixed on the courtyard, not letting go of any sign of trouble.

If it were anyone else, they would definitely feel uncomfortable being stared at by strangers with ill intentions. However, Du Yue and the other two did not care about their gazes at all. If those people wanted to stare, then let them. Anyway, it would not affect the normal lives of Du Yue and the others.

There was only one annoying thing—they could not go out at will. There was an electric fence blocking the entrance. No matter how angry those people were, they could only stare at the three of them and could not cause them any harm. However, if they walked out of this courtyard, those people would definitely surround them and demand an explanation. The current situation was not suitable for conflict with those people. It was not suitable to confront too many people, so Du Yue and the other two chose to stay in the courtyard obediently.

During this period, Shen Teng would contact them through the walkie-talkie every day and invite the three of them to his house for dinner. However, thinking of the people outside, Du Yue and the other two refused. Du Yue was actually curious about the situation between Shen Teng and Zhang Hui. However, since Shen Teng did not say anything, she could not ask much. She could only hide her curiosity in her heart.

When Du Yue had almost forgotten about this matter, she suddenly heard Zhang Hui’s voice through the walkie-talkie one day. Zhang Hui’s anxious and flustered voice came from the walkie-talkie. She was stuttering and could not speak clearly. Du Yue did not understand what she was saying, but she felt that it was an urgent matter. She could only ask her to calm down first before speaking slowly.

This method was effective. Zhang Hui, who had been scolded by Du Yue, quickly stabilized her emotions. When she spoke again, although her voice was still trembling, she could finally say coherent sentences.

“I don’t know what’s wrong with Brother Teng. His whole body is burning up, and he’s unconscious from the fever. I don’t know what to do now.”

Hearing this, Du Yue’s expression became serious. “Wait at home. We’ll go over immediately.”

As soon as Du Yue finished speaking, Zhang Hui spoke again, “Don’t come over yet!” Zhang Hui’s voice sounded cautious on the other end of the walkie-talkie. “Brother Teng specifically told me not to tell you about his illness when he was awake. He didn’t want you to come and see him. He was afraid that his illness would infect you.”

Zhang Hui gradually calmed herself down. “Brother Teng suddenly fainted. 1 was too flustered, so I wanted to ask you what to do. You don’t have to come over. I’ll take care of him. I will inform you of any situation on his end.”

On the other end of the walkie-talkie, Zhang Hui wanted to say something but was interrupted by Du Yue. “We’d better go over. You just wait at home.” After saying that, she turned off the walkie-talkie.

Du Yue did not know how serious Shen Teng’s illness was, so she did not want to waste any time. She found antibiotics and fever medicine in her space. In addition to the medicine she took, there were also a few syringes. Looking at the syringes in front of her, Du Yue asked Xia Ju, “Do you know how to inject people?”

Xia Ju answered confidently, “Of course, I do. 1 learned it from watching videos.”

Du Yue was speechless. “So you’ve never actually done it before?”

“Of course not!” Xia Ju said matter-of-factly, “Interstellar people rarely get sick. Even if they’re not feeling well, they can just drink medicine for the mild symptoms. If it’s serious, they can be sent directly to the nutrition chamber. I never had the chance to practice it!”

Du Yue nodded. She had to admit that Xia Ju’s words made sense.

“It’s okay. It’s not difficult to do injections. Since you said you’ve learned it, then you definitely know it,” Du Yue said seriously.

Xia Ju looked at Du Yue with admiration. “Your trust in me isn’t misplaced. Don’t worry, I’ll definitely do it well.”

“Then let’s hurry over. We still don’t know what’s going on with Shen Teng.” Du Yue stood up and walked out with the bag.

Xia Ju stood there hesitantly. “We definitely have to go over, but what about those people outside?”

Those people were still blocking the entrance! So many days had passed, and there were dozens of people taking turns to watch their every move outside the courtyard. The longer they stood outside, the fiercer their eyes became. Their expressions became worse and worse..
